It’s no secret that the R8 supercar launched Audi into a whole new stratosphere of attention, not just within the auto industry, but in the entire world.

The supercar that made its world debut in 2006 has starred in a number of Hollywood blockbusters. It has participated in some of the most famous and grueling races in the world. And most important of all, it became so popular that Audi launched a whole revolution of models inspired by the R8.

Now that the car is in its sixth year of existence, the time has finally come for Audi to introduce the second generation R8. To give us a little slice of the hype pie, the German automaker has released a pretty cool tribute video for their supercar, complete with all six different models of the R8, as well as a sneak peek of what’s shaping up to be an all-new model.

Check out the video and going Audi in waxing nostalgic on their supercar. And before you start reminiscing, keep your eyes open towards the latter part of the video when the second-generation R8 is teased ever so subtly.

The car’s performance is vicious and heart-pounding, that’s why it became the popular super car. I want the next generation to beat the level of this R8.

Wow, the R8 models are still sleek as ever! Notice how they run smoothly even on the cracked race tracks. The teaser really is so short; I can’t wait for them to release a little more vivid image of the next-generation R8.
